ABSTRACT:
The insert of the invention is designed for installation in a gasoline filler neck so that the neck is restricted to a size allowing filling only by unleaded gasoline-size nozzles. The insert is designed for situations where the original restrictor has been removed and/or altered so that regular gas may be used. The insert is designed with locking teeth around the perimeter to allow the insert to be placed into the neck and yet provide that the insert is difficult to remove.
